Best Answer

There were any number of French priests who rejected Christ's teaching and left the Church, particularly the Cathars who were a group of ascetic priests in southern France in the 12th through the 14th centuries who embraced heresy and left the Church. As you are asking about a single priest, you may be referring to John Calvin, but he was never ordained, he was in minor orders, I believe, before he left the seminary to study law. Subsequently he left the Church altogether and started his own heresy which is known today as Calvinist.
